Onsite Comments

There are about 50 dead bluegill and 15 dead bass in a pond at Blair Meadows preserve, which is owned by Cerro Gordo Co Cons Board. All were decomposed and had been dead for a lengthy time. No evidence of surface runoff problems. Water clean with no odor. Appears to be a natural fish kill due to heavy ice and snow cover this past winter.
